PLANYC FAQ
OLDER: Water - New York City has one of the cleanest and most reliable drinking water systems in the world. But by 2030, virtually all of our major water infrastructure will be more than a century old. We are nearing completion of Water Tunnel #3, which will allow us to examine and repair our tunnels in the City for the first time ever. Our challenge now is to bring that same vision and resolve to the upstate supply system, which already leaks up to 20 million gallons a day.
